The first batch of kits is due in soon. Here's how we are going to decide who's order gets shipped first. We will go down the list of orders starting with the earliest date/time. We will charge the person's card for the complete order. If the card goes through, we will ship the kit. If the card declines for any reason, we will attempt one phone call to your daytime phone number. If there is no answer, we will send an email to the email address on file telling you that your card declined and move on to the next person on the list. That next person gets your kit. When you reply and we can successfully charge your card, you go back to the top of the list. Please bear in mind that we are getting a limited number of kits and they will go out very fast. My advice is to call your credit card company in advance and verify that the card will go through. Any inquiries about your order should go through Karen at extension 20. Please do not send carbon copies of messages to anyone else. Do this and you'll be flying your Synergy N9 before you know it.
We are pretty sure the kits will arrive over a period of a few days. As of now, the release date is still the 28th. We also are pretty sure that we will be able to get the kits in boxes that are not oversize, but it's going to be very close. We will do our very best, but my best guess is that it will be within an inch of being oversize. I figured the shipping to several places. UPS 2 day is from $46 - $68. Ground is from $13 - $19. These numbers are based on a box size of 38x15x7 and a shipping weight of 15 lbs going to a commercial address. If it's going to a residence, UPS charges about another $2. Remember, this is just for the kit. From the size of the kit box, the kit is packed pretty tight so I doubt if we can fit an engine in the box without removing it from it's box. Servos will probably fit okay. If you tell us in advance that's it's okay to take things such as the engine out of the box, we can probably fit a few things inside the same box. Otherwise, if you ordered other items, there will be two boxes.
We know the price will be somewhere between $980 and $995. It depends on how much our final cost is going to be.
You are going to like this kit...a lot!
